Well, they say that "this vulnerability does not exist on Intel-based
consumer PCs" and just in their small business versions, but who knows
if that's really the case?

That said, the firmware on most consumer platforms is about 1.5MB while
the small business stuff is 5MB so maybe this particular exploit only
exists somewhere in that extra 3.5MB worth of crap. But again, who knows?

The actual advisory lists which firmware versions are affected. For
those who want to attempt to flash their ME chip to patch against this,
any official "fixed" firmware's last four digits will start with a '3.'
